We stayed at The Jetty over Memorial Day weekend and had a lovely time. You cant beat the price for such a great location. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and our neighbors were kind and quiet during the appropriate times. The room was a bit dated, like others said, but it had everything we needed and was clean and safe. We found the bed comfortable. The restaurant next door also had a great breakfast. We would definitely stay again!

This quaint retro motel has a great location on the West side, walkable to downtown, quiet, and right on the beach. There are nature preserves and trails nearby as well as the boardwalk and dining options. The room was clean and well maintained and the front desk staff were super friendly and helpful.

What an adorable place to stay! I was in town to watch my son graduate from Coast Guard boot camp and I couldn’t have picked a better spot. Not only was I steps from the sand, but my room had a perfect view of the Lighthouse from the kitchen window. The kitchen was stocked with everything I needed to eat my leftovers from dining out, it was very clean, and I slept peacefully listening to the waves crashing outside my window. If you’re in good walking shape, you can walk pretty much anywhere you want to go. My ex husband booked a more expensive resort room down the road and was jealous I had a better view of the ocean. I was so lucky to able to check in early after a nightmare red eye flight, and as a gardener, I absolutely loved the garden next to the pool growing my favorites-tomatoes, berries, squash, sunflowers. I love how supportive the town is of the Coast Guard and their families, and I met so many wonderful people during my short stay. This will definitely be a place on my list to return. Thank you for everything! It was a great first trip to the East Coast!

Great location.

Nice beachfront hotel. Incredible location. The room was very clean. Just a bit dated. The bed was incredibly soft and I’m not going to say that was good. But I really don’t want to complain otherwise!

After staying at multiple different properties in Cape May, this is by far our favorite. It is quiet and clean. The staff is very friendly and most importantly, it is oceanfront!

Older property at the quiet end of Cape May across the street from nice beaches. The motel is not “fancy” but functional. I really enjoyed having a kitchenette area with sink, microwave and small fridge plus a few dishes and glasses.

1950s Throwback

It was ok. But it's just a box with a bed, a small chest with a small tv and a 'kitchen' that's not practical. Central heat had to be manually turned on off. There was no heat in the bathroom. On the positive side, the people were very nice and it was sorta cheap.
